Tennis always has the reputation of attracting a traditionally well-behaved crowd, but there’s definitely been a slight shift since around 2007.

For example, at Wimbledon this year you had the Hanescu incident in which he spat at the crowd, after allegedly having been heckled & jeered by a bunch of drunks.

In Australia, in 2007, you had a full-scale race riot between Serbs & Croats. And in 2009 the same happened following a match between Djokovic [Serbia] & [Bosnian born] Amer Delic. Also at the Aus Open, in 2008, police had to use pepper spary on Greek fans who got out of control during a Fernando Gonzalez v Konstantinos Economidis match.

Even though the fight at Flushing Meadows appears to be out of character for the event, perhaps it’s still another indicator that tennis is now attracting a much broader clientle, and one that is a little unfamiliar with the sport’s long held traditions for gentlemanly conduct both on and off the court.
